DESCRIPTION:This practical introduction to bioinformatics will explain key 
 concepts of sequencing data analysis as well as a broader overview on bioi
 nformatics data analysis.\n\nData analysis is a job in high demand. Alread
 y in 2012 a Harvard business review article declared data science the ‘s
 exiest job of the 21st century’ and still in ‘2022 and beyond’ it is
  an excellent career choice. Furthermore\, studying the healthcare job mar
 ket during Covid-19\, we can clearly see a shift to analytical skills as a
  requirement in new job offers.\n\nRNA-sequencing revolutionised genomics 
 and health care research\, by being a high-throughput and comparatively lo
 w-cost method. Together with the development of computational tools to ena
 ble their analysis\, it has fundamentally improved our understanding of RN
 A biology. \n\nGalaxy is a worldwide open source project with the European
  Galaxy server being the biggest instance in Europe with more than 70\,000
  users. The Freiburg Galaxy Team is hosting this server out of Freiburg. T
 hrough Galaxy as a gateway\, we are offering free access to databases and 
 more than 3\,200 bioinformatics tools which can be used through a graphica
 l user interface. \n\nWithin this workshop you will learn how to use Galax
 y and how to perform a full RNA-seq data analysis. However\, RNA-seq data 
 is just one of many different kinds of data analysed in bioinformatics. Th
 erefore\, the last workshop day will provide an overview of the wide range
  of bioinformatics databases and data formats.
